Got my date



Recommended Posts

Hi Danna,

Just thought I would add my best wishes for tomorrow. I envy you and at this stage can only dream when my day will come. You will be fine. Good luck and tell us all about it when you get home.

Deb

thanks Deb and Sades,

It's strange thinking in hours instead of days, when I got a date it seemed so far away and now there is only one more sleep.

talk to you again when I get to the other side.

Thanks for all your thoughts - I am now on the other side (so to speak). Had my surgery late yesterday afternoon and spent an uncomfortable night in ICU and have now been relocated to a ward where I will spend tonight and hopefully get some sleep.

Will write more latter - getting a bit tired now.

:whoo::whoo:Glad to hear that you have come out of it okay. I hated the hospital... you'll feel much better when you are back in your own bed. Look forward to chatting about your experience. :whoo::whoo:

Danna, Great to see you are now banded after what must have seemed like for ever counting down. Rest up and take things easy. Looking forward to hearing about your progress.

Hi Debz,

I'm doing great -haven't had a fill yet but go back to see about that on 9/1. Was lucky to be back on normal foods for Chrissie, though ate more than I should. The good thing though, was that I didn't eat anywhere near what i would have done last year. So while I haven't lost anything over Christmas I haven't gained anything either, so for this time of year that has to be a plus.

Anyway, back onto the proper eating plan now and I hope to have lost more weight by my appointment date.

How's everything going for you?

Hi Danna,

Great to hear you are doing so well. For me it is still a waiting game. I have my first appointment with the surgeon on the 15th of April and hope to have a date the minute my insurance kicks in in June. I just can't wait, it seems like forever away.

Debz,

Waiting is the pitts!!! At least when you see the Dr in April you will be able to book your op so that you can be banded as soon as the insurance kicks in.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
